Hawaii Vacation Day 3 - Ziplining

Wednesday 11/14

Our ziplining tour with Princeville Ranch Adventures was the first of three big tours I had planned for our trip and I had thought long and hard about it before booking it. I was intrigued by the concept of soaring over rain forests, and I do love a good roller coaster, but I was also a bit concerned that I would wuss out when the time came to step off the platform. As it turned out, I didn’t need to worry at all.

There was never a moment where I felt I was in danger or that the trip was anything but fun. After the first “bunny hill” of ziplines, there were 8 more lines of increasing length. They just got better and better and we had a great time.

After all but the last zipline, we went for a quick dip in a swimming hole before having our picnic lunch. While refreshing, the swim was the one part I could have done without – it was very hard to get dry and I just felt muddy and damp the rest of the day. And, yes, my legs are glaringly white in the sun.

We ended the day tired and a bit sore from the harness, but I’m really glad we went for it.
